[time-nuts] The Demise of LORAN (was Re: Reference oscillatoraccuracy)

[Bill Hawkins]

Ahh, must jump into feeding frenzy . . .

Here we find the limitations of the 3 pound (1.5 kilogram) human brain.

One must become a specialist to become informed on a particular field,
because the scope of that field increases exponentially with time (the
subject of this group).

Not everyone keeps up, and not everyone who looks at the bleeding edge
thinks that past experience and knowledge has been included. And so we enter
an alternative universe similar to the discussion of politics or religion.
Think about why all of these diverse opinions exist.

The brain can't comprehend something for which it has no comprehending
structures of nerves. We stopped having enough structures sometime in the
16th century. We forge into the future only because we specialize into areas
that do fit the brain, but no two people have the same brain structures.

And so, dear friends, we are descending not into Alice's rabbit hole, but a
rat hole with an infinite number of twisty little passages, all somewhat
alike. The decision was made, some time ago. The time for discussion has
passed. Please return the list to its subject matter.

YMMV
